And me 

------------------------
Mère lune résonne de lucioles puis planent les parfums d'éperdus pavots à peine semés de Zéphyr sucré où s'accordent à danser le grillon et le chaton de peuplier pleurant ses pleurotes en prières à la lisière de la rivière, alors je murmure sous les astres que tu délures, le miel des demains indociles en cils dorés de pistils, sigil aussi futile qu'une île Ivre, à circlure nos serrures ou nos sourires ainsi nuitées des poussières stellaires en l'ère maîtresse sous esses serrées de désirs et défoncer des tendresses tressées par la voix lactée léchée par la douceur lunaire empreinte dans mes yeux, message nacrée au filet si peu pieux, en ce pont-levis de salive, jaloux houleux, honte feinte qu'éreinte le rythme profond siroté par l'empreinte dans ma chair douleur et éclair d'obscurité qui file au feu de ton souffle à couler l'or navigant sur les nacres de ton soudain rire tonnerre, nerf du dire âcre où tu soudes ma bouche à la faveur des fièvres crépusculaires, car renversante jusqu'au rêvuscule que je crée en traversant tes iris à la tangente des hiérogamies cosmiques où dégouline la douceur lunaire empreinte dans mes yeux.

method: first, I created a shaman-monk-version (mostly ‚Gregorian‘ voice and jaw harp) on cassette tape (this is where some of the noise - especially in the first section - derives from) and zoom r20 with a vacuum-tube pre-amp for the voice ….. all of which I then treated like a field recording sample in Samplitude - sculpting it with vst instruments and effects. 
narration: it feels like I have sonified this poem a million times before …. which might be the case because I have lived through it that often - I and others I dearly care for …. but then again … I might have actually done so. it is also part of the cycle SONIC CASCADE published in  A SINGLE LOOP OF FORTUNES. Alternative titles are ‚TWO-PLACE‘ and ‚04s SAMPLE‘. For this publication, I simplify the title to  ‚SAMPLE‘.

poem / copyright jo richter:

two-place sleeps on the ground
and still doesn‘t know where it is -
all of its strings sound sound
in heaven-hellish bliss -
nothing, it says, goes amiss
that doesn‘t want to be found
